Default Lepanthopsis astrophora

I think I've decided that this is one of my favorite orchids! Micro-mini, seems like it's always either in spike or in bloom - and the flowers are purple (my fav color) BONUS!!!!

Little buggers are to take pictures of I'll leave the photography of these little guys to Ron Hanko!





Shamless plug: I have some of these for sale

Great bloom! I have the same species, and it stays in bloom for most of the year. It's a charmer, but it does need a magnifying glass.

I would be tempted, except I'm not sure you ship to the UK and more importantly I am broke just now and have had to put a stop on ALL orchid spending.

This has gone on my wish list though

You're just an enabler like the rest of us here

It's a good job for me that I AM the other side of the pond just now... otherwise this one might get bought despite us being broke, and then I would be in big trouble with my hubby
